Perfume Testers are official manufacturer samples created for display and evaluation in retail stores — brands include Versace, Tom Ford, Lacoste, Gucci, YSL, Hugo Boss, and Acqua di Parma. Once used for in-store demonstrations, they are sold as testers — full-size bottles with the same authentic fragrance, often without the decorative retail box.
At The Scent Stories®, all testers are 100% authentic, factory-sealed and sourced directly from original brand stock. You get the identical fragrance experience as the retail version at a significantly lower price. Testers are typically available in the largest bottle formats (75ml–200ml).
Our tester range covers 200+ brands across men's and women's fragrances — designer houses like Tom Ford as well as niche favourites from Creed, Mancera and Parfums de Marly. Free shipping on orders above ₹1,500.
